We will track down and neutralize every narco drone that dares invade AMERICAN skies.
DEFEND THE HOMELAND.
@DHSgov x @DoWCTO 🇺🇸
Adiós, Narcos.
Under the leadership of @POTUS Trump, DHS and @DoWCTO are dismantling the cartel’s drone network for smuggling and trafficking across our southern border.
American industry will continue to scale low-cost-per-shot, deep-magazine directed-energy systems to maintain Directed Energy DOMINANCE and checkmate drone threats to the Homeland.

Over 25,000 pounds of cocaine. Four vessels in international waters off Central America.
USCGC Tampa’s (WMEC 902) boarding team and embarked aircrew interdicted a go-fast vessel hauling 6,800 pounds of cocaine.
Four days later, they interdicted two more vessels carrying a combined 15,000 pounds of cocaine.
The next day: Another go-fast vessel. Another 3,400+ pounds of cocaine seized.
Approximately 9.5 million potentially deadly doses never reached American communities.
A new milestone for Operation Pacific Viper: over 262,000 pounds of cocaine seized in the Eastern Pacific.

United in the fight against narco-terrorism:
The Ecuadorian National Police, with assistance from the DEA and #SOUTHCOM, successfully completed a joint operation targeting illicit networks that spread terror and harm across the region. Together, we are taking the fight to the cartels by applying total systemic friction to protect the Western Hemisphere and defend the homeland.

OPERACIÓN CONJUNTA CONTRA UNA ESTRUCTURA DE NARCOTRÁFICO
La madrugada de hoy bajo el liderazgo de nuestro @CmdtPoliciaEc #GraSPabloDávila y el Ministro del Interior en coordinación con tropas norteamericanas y la @DEAHQ
ejecutó una operación conjunta que permitió la detención de varios sujetos en #Guayaquil, #Daule, #Samborondón, #Ventanas, #Babahoyo, #Puebloviejo, #Vinces y #Machala.
La investigación permitió identificar una estructura dedicada al acopio, intermediación, distribución, transporte y comercialización de grandes cantidades de droga proveniente de #Colombia, que pretendía ser enviada por vía marítima desde puertos de Guayaquil y Machala hacia Centroamérica, Estados Unidos y Europa.
Operativo en desarrollo.

I was honored to attend the Marine Barracks Washington Evening Parade with my family as a guest of honor alongside The Honorable Dan Scavino and his wife Erin.
As a proud Marine, it was meaningful to witness the precision, discipline, and warrior spirit on full display. The traditions of the “Oldest Post” are a powerful reflection of the heritage, excellence, and fighting spirit of the United States Marine Corps.
The event was hosted by Maj. Gen. Hoffman and we were honored by the presence of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, Attorney General Todd Blanche, NASA Administrator Jared Issacman, Commandant of the Marine Corps General Eric Smith, and SgtMaj of the Marine Corps Carlos Ruiz.
Semper Fidelis. 🇺🇸

"This agreement marks a decisive turning point in Caribbean security, sending an unmistakable message to the cartels and narco-terrorists who have for too long spread terror and violence throughout our hemisphere.
Alongside our Jamaican partners, we are capitalizing on a decades-long history of security cooperation to strengthen our front against cartels and expand our joint efforts to combat threats in the Western Hemisphere."

"The Americas Counter Cartel Coalition forum, hosted by our good friends in Panama, signals a decisive shift in our regional fight against cartels and narco-terrorists. Our goal is simple: turn this coalition into a functioning, synchronized team that takes the fight to the enemy.
We cannot afford to just meet and discuss. We must take action together, working shoulder-to-shoulder to apply total systemic friction on these terrorist networks and safeguard our hemisphere." — #SOUTHCOM Commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan
